Abstract

This article aims to present a reflection on the importance of Corpus Linguistics (LC) as a methodological contribution for the lexical selection of the oral corpus of PA São Francisco, with the help of the computer program Sketch Engine. In this sense, LC is highlighted as a methodology that enables the analysis of language data in a probabilistic way and that allows analyzing patterns or trends in linguistic phenomen. Furthermore, it is linked to the creation of electronic corpora and the use of analysis software for reading both oral and written corpora. For example, Sketch Engine allows the comparison between a corpus of study and a reference corpus in order to highlight keywords through frequency analysis in different contexts. Thus, the methodological proposal of constructing an oral corpus and processing this data for future lexical analyses aimed at exploring linguistic data in a language, especially in specific linguistic research contexts.
